F11-iP motor maintains 40m/s optimum cutting speed

A Parker Hannifin - Parker Sales UK product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Jun 26, 2009

Parker Hannifin, the provider of motion and control technologies, has developed a hydraulic saw motor that automatically maintains an optimum cutting speed of 40m/s for 35 per cent faster cutting.

This translates to up to 4,000m3 more timber per year.

Parker Hannifin has developed a new hydraulic saw motor.

In addition to boosting productivity with quicker and more even sawing, the F11-iP motor eliminates over-revving, minimising the cost of maintenance and downtime.

The F11-iP motor uses a patented hyper-fast hydraulic control circuit to maintain the optimum chain speed throughout the entire log, unlike conventional motors, which surge in speed as the saw enters and leaves the log and slow down in between.

This constant speed, which is automatically adjusted to match the timber quality, enables the chain to work at maximum efficiency, with all available power going straight to the log.

The result is faster sawing and far less bucking splits, ultimately increasing profitability.

The hydraulic saw motor uses Parker's Intelligent Power technology to reduce the damage to motors, chains and entire hydraulic systems, which is common in aggressive timber-cutting applications.

With equipment providing a longer, lower-maintenance service life, considerable reductions can be made in downtime and associated costs.

In addition, by minimising heat losses, Parker's patented Powerboost technology helps to reduce fuel consumption for more affordable, greener sawing, according to the company.

The F11-iP motor is suitable for any timber-cutting application where maximum productivity is required.

It is supplied factory set for optimum efficiency, with the gear ratio tailored to the machine in which it is to be fitted.
